Yearbook is a year-long course designed to have students understand the role of visual art and design, and its impact on society and culture, particularly in publication mediums. The course will focus on students understanding a designer's target audience and stimulating creativity through a variety of two dimensional media. Then, students will apply this artistic process to create designs for the yearbook publication.  Finally, they will maintain the integrity of design through the editing process, while collaborating and communicating with their colleagues on the yearbook staff.
